Answer:
7 1/12 bushels of sweet corn per acre of land
Step-by-step explanation:
Total bushels of sweet corn harvested this year fewer than the previous year = 21 1/4
Total acres of land used to plant = 3 acres
what is the average loss per acre?
Average loss = Total bushels of sweet corn harvested for the year / 3 acres
= 21 1/4 ÷ 3
= 85/4 ÷ 3
= 85/4 × 1/3
= 85 / 12
= 7 1/12
Average loss = 7 1/2 bushels of sweet corn per acre of land
